Millennium's strengths lie in its complete understanding of the political, permitting, project development and management of all types of mining and energy programs, including their financing, institutional equity investment, secured and mezzanine loans. Millennium's advisory services have included major projects for the corporate and governmental areas.

Michael Fromer is the Founder and Senior Managing Director of Millennium Capital Resources LLC and a Founder and Managing Director Millennium Energy Holdings, LLC.

Mr. Fromer's commercial property financings have included major hotels, shopping centers, parking facilities, office buildings, coal mines, cleaning plants, asphalt plants, quarries and quarry plants.

Jeremy Werblowsky, CFO of World Health Energy Holdings, said, 'World Health Energy looks forward to working with Millennium Capital Resources in obtaining the financing, utilizing debt financing and not relying on equity financing. By using non-dilutive financing, World Health Energy is demonstrating its resolve to enhance shareholder value.'
